| bassmax | Hi all, I'm wondering where to find the menu file configuration in saucy flavour ? | 12:59 |
| bassmax | goal : backup actual one and user-wise editing one (for grandpa!) | 13:00 |
| bassmax | the ones in /etc/xdg/menus not refers to the one used | 13:02 |
| koell | What are the advantages/disadvantages of different partitions on a NAS? | 14:14 |
| rosemball | what are you trying to do with your NAS? | 14:15 |
| koell | rosemball: streaming and backups are the main purposes of the nas | 14:16 |
| rosemball | so you want different partitions for your media and backups? | 14:17 |
| koell | rosemball: thats the plan. idk if it's a good idea... | 14:17 |
| rosemball | What raid setup are you using? | 14:18 |
| koell | rosemball: no raid. just one external hard drive on my pi. its more like a low end nas. | 14:19 |
| rosemball | well, I think you would be better off with only one partition | 14:23 |
| rosemball | IMO partitioning is the way to go if: 1) you want to use different FS in the same disk (like ext4 and the swap). 2) you have more than 1 disk and want to put different mountpoints in them (like / in disk 1 and /home in disk 2) | 14:25 |
| rosemball | also, partitioning on the same disk is good if you frequently format one partition and leave the other one intact (like keeping /home and formatting /) | 14:29 |
| koell | rosemball: great, thank you for your help! i'll prefer this too. it's much more simpler and cleaner solution. | 14:32 |
| rosemball | koell, you're welcome | 14:35 |
| koell | rosemball: do you also know, if it's possible to backup my music, photos, and videos to a 2nd hdd with ntfs filesystem? i would like to have a 2nd disk to use it as mobile hdd i can go with, which also works on windows pcs | 14:37 |
| rosemball | yes, it is possible | 14:42 |
| rosemball | you want to mount it on your NAS or directly on your pc? | 14:43 |
| ddsss | so - does anyone know how long will it take for lxde to switch to qt? | 18:47 |
| ianorlin | It will take longer than until April for lubuntu to switch and 14.10 at the earliest it is not stable yet | 18:50 |
| ianorlin | there is a way to build it from source on the lxde blog but is not stable | 18:51 |
| ddsss | ianorlin, but it's a definitive switch - right. LXDE is definitely switching to qt- the question is just in timing - right? | 18:52 |
| ianorlin | yes | 19:25 |

| bassmax | Hi. Try to make my own .desktop with Type=Link, but failed to add it with existings applet of lxpanel. Any clue ? | 19:46 |
| ohhmaar | So i installed 32bit lubuntu 13.10 on this old desktop, and when I boot I am presented a "Localhost login" screen | 20:15 |
| ohhmaar | I have tried the username/password i setup during the installation | 20:15 |
| ohhmaar | Doesn't work | 20:15 |
| ohhmaar | Anyone know the default? whats the workaround for this? | 20:15 |
| ianorlin | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword | 20:20 |
| ohhmaar | I don't think that applies to me | 20:24 |
| ohhmaar | upon boot i see this ubuntu 13.10 local host.localdomain tty1 | 20:24 |
| ianorlin | can you log into that? | 20:26 |
| ianorlin | what kind of graphics card? | 20:26 |
| ianorlin | !nomodeset | 20:26 |
| ubottu | A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 20:26 |
| ianorlin | what does hitting control alt f7 do? | 20:27 |
| ohhmaar | i cannot login, it's an old pc, amd athlon xp | 20:27 |
| ohhmaar | processor | 20:27 |
| ohhmaar | altf7 removes the screen and i get command line | 20:27 |
| ohhmaar | but i cannot type anything | 20:27 |
| ianorlin | are you sure you installed from a good disk? | 20:28 |
| ohhmaar | yes, ill try once more. maybe this pc can't handle lubuntu? i have yet to try puppy linux | 20:29 |
| ianorlin | not install but there is a testdisk option on the disk | 20:29 |
| ohhmaar | oh yes it passed the tests | 20:29 |
| ianorlin | hmm not sure then | 20:30 |
| ohhmaar | recommend any other distros? | 20:31 |
| theowner997_ | Anyone knows how can I take screenshots in Lubuntu? | 22:41 |
| Unit193 | Lubuntu comes with scrot, and Print Screen dumps a file in your home. | 22:42 |
| koell | theowner997_: use shutter | 22:42 |
| koell | theowner997_: its in lubuntu software-center. very easy and nice tool | 22:42 |
| theowner997_ | Last question : I want to play my legit copy of Counter Strike 1.6 in lubuntu , do i need any drivers or something? | 22:45 |
| koell | theowner997_: puh i dont know if it works. but i use "play on linux" for a few windows games. but i dont know if there is a native version of cs on steam...? | 22:47 |
| theowner997_ | counter strike 1.6 original version is supported in linux , I am just asking if any drivers are needed | 22:48 |
| koell | theowner997_: do u have both onboard and gpu card? | 22:49 |
| theowner997_ | I don't understand what do you mean, I have a netbook with intel atom 1.6 ghz and intel graphics 2gb of ram | 22:50 |
